When doing the sometimes unpleasant but always important planning for the time that one is no longer, it is important to have a proper and up-to-date appraisal so that every eventuality is considered. Taxes and other funerary and such costs will always come up, and it is valuable to make sure that your assets are protected and that you have ample resources so that your family is not saddled with any unexpected obligations.

In partnership with one’s attorney and designated executor, a professional appraiser can and should provide the needed appraisal reports to support the values of the property within the estate and allow for the proper planning to satisfy these needs.
